The Protestant graveyard

Description

As you leave the town, you’ll find a Protestant graveyard. Do not miss the pastor’s stone pulpit, built in 1673, with a hexagonal layout. The names of prominent men from that era are engraved on its walls. On one of the sides there is a verse from book of Revelations 14:13 : « Selig sind die Toten, die in dem Herrn sterben von nun an. Sie ruhen von ihrer Arbeit » (Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on. They will rest from their labour).
